Correspondence of the Gazette.
WEATHERFoRD, TEX, Oct. 1.-THE
GAZETTE correspondent has iust returned
from g tour over the southern portion OF
this county, which was made IN company
with Mr.. L. w. Christian OF this city.
The resources of this county is certainly
marvellous, and particularly so OF this
portion OF it, SO IL possesses some OF the
most fertile and finest agricultural lands
that can be found anywhere. The line
rich valley prsiries produce cotton equal
to the Mississippi bottoms, and for grain
they are inferior to none. The farmers
are now busy sowing their
wheat, the ground is in excellent
condition st this time, the recent tine
rains have put the land in fine condition
for seecing it and the farmers are taking
advantage Of il. One of the most prounl-
nent fine stock farms in the state visited
on this tour wss that of Me5sTs. Chris

This farm contains 1000 sores and is d.
vi6ed into pastures, hay fields and grain
! farm. The pastures are simply unsur-
pissed, the grain farm can't be beaten.

field is the charming feature. The nay now

the same community is not inferior TO
the Forney hsy, which has become so
famous in this country, snd within two
years Parker county will be furnishing
the hay for the entire western
country. The southern part Of this
county as fine stock raising
and grain country has very bright
future. TIE Santa Fe and Rio Grande
Railroads both run through this part OF
the county, giving ample shipping faclli-
ties for the shipment of the products.
The city Of WeatheEford, located about
the center of this rich county, is rapidly
growing, and Just on the eve Of very
substantial boom, fed by such counties as
Parker and adjoining counties, with two
railroads and many other advantages,
she is destined to be a very thriving city
Of considerable magnitude.
The Stetson Dramatic Company has
been entertaining the people Of Weather
ford at the opershouse this week IN a
most satisfactory manner to hearers and

not superior, to any company that has
ever visited this place. In the celebrated
dramas, entitled Neck and Neck and Olive
Branch they are at the head.
General W. L. Cabell, United States
Marshal, and Major G. B. Pearre, United
States District Attorney, passed through
the city this morning for Grahsm, where
they will attend Federal court, which

The Mexican war survivors and

have been felicitating themselves on
the apparent speedy realization of
their long deferred hopes of pensions,
will be somewhat chsgrined TO learn
that no definite period can now be
fixed upon when their cases will re-
ceive attention by the pension Office.
IL is estimated that those affected by
the provisions Of the Mexican pension
bill are about 10000, aud IL Mr.. Ran
